A RL Aussie band on tour in SL promoting their new CD "Resident Alien"

"In a galaxy several thousand lightyears away, a council of the Galactic Federation selected 3 transvibrational beings to travel as emissaries to planet Earth with a mission to observe and adapt as musicians in separate continents. Through cosmic and technological connectivity they impart their vibrational messages of healing and energy while reactivating star codes through earthly forms of musical communication."

RL/SL band SpaceJunky's involvement with SL has resulted in Sony Creative Software's AcidPlanet hosting a remix contest for their song Gravitational Pull.This is the same remix contest that they have hosted for the likes of Madonna, Lenny Kravitz, Nine Inch Nails and Black Eyed Peas.

This came about because of SpaceJunky's involvement with SL and their recent story on CNN International about how the band is using SL to reach out to music fans all over the world.

On May 18th and June 7th we shot more of the video for the song Killer Coat, which will feature the coats by June Dion of Bare Rose and Etain Peregrine of Dark Eden. It is being shot by the legendary Stretch Mayo who has done amazing work in SL, including his show "All Rezzed Up" which was featured on Verizon's website for some time. Shakti has seen a rough edit from Stretch and it's going to be awesome! You can see Stretch's work here at his website http://www.stretchmayo.com/ and catch up with Bare Rose and Dark Eden on their blogs

Shak & Kitty go shopping....(Kitty otherwise known as Dannon, but he is in danger of stealing the whole video due to uncontrollable cuteness, so Shak is keeping his ego in check by referring to him only as "Kittyboy".

Work it, work it!

Shak works its while Z rocks it!

Later that night Dannon took us up to the cove in his latest spaceship to party!

On May 17th Bella and the rest of the production crew threw a going away party for Shakti, as she was about to go on a 10 day retreat with a high Tibetan Lama to learn an ancient healing system from Tibet that some say is the origion of reiki. Bella never does anything by half meausures and so when Shakti arrived there were angel wings and halos for everyone. It was at the Shangria Falls, Shakti's favorite place in all SL and they got Cypress Rosewood to play,and Tommy did his awesome fireworks, and we hung out at the PQE meditation circle that Dannon built for Shakti, Shakti said it was one of her favorite nights in SL ever. Thank you to Bella, Izzy, Tommy, Dannon and Wizzi for making it happen, and a special hug for Bella.......:-)

On May 11th we opened the Tibet sim with a celebration at Shangria. Shangria is turning out to be a great new home for SpaceJunky and we hope to host many great events there in the coming months. Soon we wil be announcing our new stores with some top SL designers, along with the Inspire Center which features products by the Inspire Team of Dannon Robbiani & Sion Bedrosian.

On May 4th we were invited to play for Bare Rose by June Dion. It was a wonderful show and packed full of Alpha Crew & Junes VIPS. Bare Rose is one of Shakti's favorite designers in SL and it was an honor to do a show for them. Bare Rose wil also be having a satellite store at Shangria so we're very excited about that too. More to come!

On April 26th we played a show at Shangria, the very first one actually for the opening of theMerovingi Fashion Awards a fundraiser for cancer which was simulcast into the theatre at the Merovingi Sim. It was a great night of fashion and the winners of the Killer Coat Award were Bare Rose and Dark Eden, with June Dion and Etain Peregrine taking the honors respectively.

On April 20th we did a show for the good people at D'Fine and it was a fundraiser for Tibet with pictures of HH the Dalai Lama, a great night was had for a good cause. Tibet is always close to Shakti's heart and our prayers go out to those in Tibet at this time.
